So, everyone at my job is quitting. Seriously. Like, all 6 freaking managers have recently left/leaving within a week. And the area manager. Seriously. Managers from other stores are coming in like rentals. And then there's like, 5 or 6 other people leaving. It's looking like my friend Amanda and I are going to get promoted. Yay.

Also, it seems that whenever I think I've...

I thought about quitting my job yesterday, and then realized that it's really easy and that I actually have money now, so I decided against that.

Personally, I was hoping to have a nice little party at my house for once. I was even going to cook lots of food. Especially since I get super emo on my birthday. I'll think about the round couch party.

5 shifts of dishwashing over the course of 3 days is not fun. I've worked like, 30 hours since Saturday. My feet hurt. blackeyed

Also, Eponine's friend is fucking awesome and is getting me into ComicCon for free. Free! love
bat_kat:
Oh nice. Have fun at that Con.

Dishwashing sucks
dark_cabal:
So, you should talk to that friend into getting me in shocked
I envy.

So, Eponine and I don't really have internet right now. How am I writing this, you ask? On my Wii, that's how! Neat, huh? It's kind of time-consuming, but I beat Kingdom Hearts 2 and am thus bored and lonely.

In any case, I think I'm getting the hang of typing like this. Sweet.

dark_cabal:
So where do you go for comics then?

Aaand it's catching up with me. My car is broken. Again.

I was driving home from work, and about two blocks away suddenly my CD player went dead. Like, entirely off. Then I looked at my dashboard and saw that it said everything was below empty. Like, no gas, no oil, no battery, no temperature, 0 mph and like, a third of 1 rpm. This...

It seems like bad things are happening to everyone around me. And I'm pretty okay; I've just been hanging out playing Kingdom Hearts II. I kind of feel bad for being okay, because no one else seems to be.
cassiel:
yeah, it was the one w/the circus, and the evil magic book.

and i did not make that page for myself. i had a bit part in my friend's movie and that's how i ended up on there wink

I got a speeding ticket. And I couldn't find my current insurance card, so I have to go find the copy at my parents' house and take it to court. frown

Also, I haven't really been able to breathe for the last couple of days. Like, literally. Doom.

School is almost over! I can't freaking wait. I'm so ready for summer.

Oh trust me im extremely burned out on school but if I dont take these classes this summer then I cant take classes I need in the fall and spring, they are preeqs and if I dont take them then I lose a year of school so I have to grin and bear it, I will have next summer off though I refuse to take classes for what would be the fourth summer in a row.
poolboy6:
Yeah, Kuwait blows.

I'll be out of here quickly, though. We don't dilly dally.

I'll be home around Christmas, since I have to go to BNCOC in January.

So last night I got to sleep around 1:30 or 2 in the morning. I woke up when my manager called 15 minutes after I was supposed to be at work.

I had to work at 4. PM.

Told you I'm sick. surreal
cassiel:

Okay, people seem to be getting confused. This horribleness is not in any way his fault. It is not a mindset. It is not self-fulfilling prophecies. It is not him. Sometimes really shitty things happen to nice people who do genuinely try to find the good in things. Sometimes things are just fucking shitty. Sometimes things can't be explained and justified away by blaming it...

I don't understand how one person's life can be so fucking horrible. I just don't understand how or why or anything about it.

No, I'm not talking about me. My life is pretty wonderful in comparison.

I don't understand.

it is because they truly, deeply want it to be. life is what we expect and desire of it. the real question is why would anyone chose to be miserable?
i say this because i've been seeing it for years in my own life. when i was miserable it was a matter of making a conscious choice not to allow those thoughts to control what happened to me. since the moment i decided i would be happy i have been happy. i do have the benefit of normal brain chemicals, that i know of, though.
hephaestos:
realize that the reason i think this way has to do with a combination of things: the idea that every small decision sends out ripples into the rest of existence, that intention and how we respond to each situation is our only solace in this vast world and that between the two we can make the world what we want it to be.
i would say that this person is in a growing process due to all of this that is fundamentally necessary to their journey in life. as a result there is a lot of good in the situation, no matter how shot to shit it looks now.
